Other Games Tonight
-
Auburn had 3 guys with two fouls 10 min into game.
-
This is one of the ugliest games I’ve ever seen. I need to take a shower after this game.
-
UK in the bonus with nearly 13 minutes to go in regulation, Auburn 55 seconds to go in OT finally gets there.
-
If I was a UK fan, I’d be pissed. They obviously paid those refs good good money.
-
ITS A MIRACLE
-
Good job, Auburn. No Final 4 for UK.
Just need MSU to deny Duke now.

I would be very okay with that FF. Anyone could win it. If Duke advances…just anyone but Duke.
-
Want our Tortilla bros to win it all. I also want Duke to lose.
-
-
The only bad thing is that Bruce Pearl’s team won. Yuck.
-
Dook as been uber lucky the last 2 times out, I think they lose a close one or win by 20 no in between.
-
When will Calipari recruit some guys that can shoot? Hagans is their Garrett.
-
@BShark Devin Booker is one of the only shooters I can remember.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich Yep. Cal has a real love for ultra athletic guys that can’t shoot.
It had been an issue with Self but then KU teams started taking way more threes. Hopefully this year is a blip, but the amount of attempts was still solid. Just need to make more.
-
Duke turning it over like road KU in the first 4 minutes.
-
For this season to be a blip, McBride and Braun are really going to have to shoot the hell out of the ball next season because none of our other guards will.
-
Zion fouls the hell outta everyone on the offensive glass.

He’s not fouling, he’s big boned. Lol
-
Ward gets called for a foul because he’s big.

This didnt age well. Tied at 30
-
Williamson has 3 tackles on the game but only 2 fouls somehow.
-
Great end to the half by Michigan St.

Not expecting anything out of Braun next year.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich Refs don’t allow defense to be played against Williamson. He is the one initiating contact almost every time he gets the ball in the paint. He gets calls, but rarely gets anything called against. Having said that, he is damn good and may be unstoppable at the next level…
-
72 years old and Coach K has no gray hair. It must be all the clean living, right?
-
A lot arm on that last MSU shot, damn tough to play a half of basketball with only 3 fouls with how much Zion bodies folks on both sides
-
Goodnight Duke.
-
Bye Duke. Officials tried.
-
Yes!! And all of those no calls hurt Dook. They would’ve had a chance if they didnt need to foul 3 times.
-
@kjayhawks That was the funniest thing, the commentators trying to explain that Duke still had 4 fouls to give before MSU was even in the 1-and-1 bonus. Good job, MSU.
-
Third time’s a charm. Duke should have lost the last 2. 'Bout time.
-
Big 12, Big 10, SEC, and ACC all with 1 team in the Final 4. I’m actually looking forward to watching it.
-
@kjayhawks @KirkIsMyHinrich The irony was quite delicious.
-
God, my Duke looking like road KU comment ended up being so on point. More turnovers than assists and anemic three point shooting.
-
People want to give KU jazz for choking. This dook team may get 4 guys in the lottery this summer and has arguably the best coach ever.
-
GO TO HELL DOOK
-
I generally don’t get a lot of personal satisfaction from other teams losing, but Duke and UK failing to make the final four on the same day is amazing. And I’m excited to hear commentary that isn’t exclusively about the Duke BlueZions in the Final 4 and Championship games.
-
And there will be a grand total of zero one and done kids in the final 4

KU didn’t choke even a little bit this year. Just got absolutely whipped by a JR/SR laden team that was also more athletic.
It’s interesting to look at actually.
Austin Wiley #35 recruit JR, Brown basically unranked SR, Jared Harper #87 JR, Chuma Okeke (played until today) #47 SO, Doughty, McLemore and Dunbar all super low ranked guys but experienced too.
Most coaches would do work with a roster where 9 of the 10 rotation players are JR/SR.
-
@BShark I was saying in general not necessarily this season. But yes I agree
-
@kjayhawks Yeah it’s a dumb narrative. The last “choke” I would say was the Stanford loss. People will point to the WSU loss but those two teams were almost identical according to advanced stats. That was a grotesque narrative based mis-seeding.
-
Awwww Crap - - all those all mighty OAD’S - -and none of them in the National final - -Dam lmao - - Couldn’t ask for a better day. - - N Carolina - - - -OUT - - - - -Duke - - - -OUT - - - - -Kentucky - - - -OUT - - - - - Gonzaga - - -OUT - DAM couldn’t ask for a better day other then Us being in the final 4.
let me just say - - - BYE - - -BYE - - -so long - - -Farewell - - -BYE - - BYE - -so long - - -farewell - - Will we see you in SEPT -will we see you - - when the summers through lmao.
No more Mr Williamson - No more Mr Barrett just crushes me. - - -In all seriousness, - - - gonna be a long time before we see an athlete quite like Zion again - -he is just a freak - -having to duck you head so you don’t hit it on the back board with a block. - -shoots the three - - handles the ball - -guards in the open floor - -rebounds - -glad he is gone. - - I think this opens the tourney - -WIDE OPEN - - -I like Tech - -I like Auburn -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@BShark Yep KU should’ve been a 3 and WSU a 5. WSU also bad way more experience and we was down Alexander.
-
Michigan State shot 6 free throws the whole game!!! You always have to beat the refs and Duke.

-

Hell then you have the broadcasters rubbin Duke’s Ass all through the game - - -Rafferty when Duke had the ball - -Coaching Duke and tellin OK whoa slow it down when Zion had the ball - -don’t settle - -don’t know how many dam times I heard that from him
-
It wouldn’t have been a contest had Dook played thru Zion more. The past 3 chances they had, he didnt touch it. When you have a guy the refs refuse to call offensive fouls on and is that big/talented. Just give it to him and take it to the rack. They never played thru him enough IMO all year. Dedric got touches nearly every trip for us this year because that all we had. If Zion was in the same boat he may have been a 30 and 15 a night guy.
